==Statement by George C. Denniston, M.D., M.P.H.==
[[George C. Denniston]], M. D., M.P.H. (2025), the founder and president of [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision (D.O.C.)| Doctors Opposing Circumcision]], commented:
<blockquote>
Some obstetricians also routinely cut half of the normal skin from the normal penises of the newborn males whom they have just delivered. They do it without medical indication, and they continue to do it despite the overwhelming evidence of harm. There is no way of getting around the fact that these doctors are torturing and mutilating their patients at the rate of 3300 newborn males every day in the United States. It is totally amazing that Americans permit doctors to continue to commit these atrocities on a daily basis. They should pass a law, which is probably the only way to stop this compulsion.<ref name="denniston2025">{{REFbook
